Honor Among Thieves demonstrates why you shouldn't let the Bard do the interrogating.

D&D nerds will quibble about whether or not sorcerers can cast “Speak With Dead” and whether or not there should be incense burning as this happens, but whatever. The fact remains that they are in a graveyard that looks like a Sam Raimi setpiece fromshit-talking with an animated corpse in what might be the most fan service interaction we’ve seen yet from the film. This might actually be breaking the “” rule that the directors said wouldn’t happen, but I’m not about to hold it against them.

Am I convinced that this film is going to be funny? No. Am I convinced this film is going to be a ride and a half as it tries to navigate the pitfalls of attempting to narratively explain all the arbitrary rules of D&D to mass audiences? Yes. There’s a huge difference between creating limits in a combat simulator and seeing them play out on screen, but I’m sure it’s going to be an absolute trip watching the film attempt to explain spell slots.
